Are wicked witches always bad?  That depends on your perspective.  Marie is a little girl who likes to jump on her bed, but to the bedbugs being squished underfoot, she is the wicked witch who causes earthquakes, among other natural disasters.  The microscopic citizens of her bed are up in arms (and legs!)  over the rhyme her mother says to her every night before bed:  “Good night, sleep tight.  Don’t let the bedbugs bite.  And if they do, you squeeze them tight, and then they won’t bite tomorrow night.”  Peter, an impassioned bedbug, feels they must take action against the witch before the rhyme’s ominous “squeezing” starts.  Patsy, however, prefers a peaceful approach and wants to talk to the witch and work something out.  Despite Patsy’s objections, the bedbugs launch a full-scale attack against Marie, prompting her to investigate with her magnifying glass.  To her surprise, there really are bedbugs...  and they have something to say!  Brave Patsy leads the peace talks, and Marie finally realizes the damage she’s been causing and apologizes.  Crawling with laughs, great stage action, and the opportunity for simple yet creative props and staging (Think A Bug’s Life), this play is a snap to produce — perfect for young audiences and actors.  In a fun way, it reminds us there are always two sides to every story and that conflict is best resolved peacefully.
